Well, I have a Newton MessagePad 130.. and I have a palm too, so I am not too worried about it, but I want to be able to use the MessagePad with OSX and download things to it. I have a serial usb adapter, but 9 does not like to run on my comp.. is there a way to go about doing this? did anyone write a program for newton X?? FYI, It's an iMac G4/800 15" Superdrive, if that makes a diff.
